SAWTOOTH SOCIETY SPECIAL PROJECTS

LICENSE PLATE

Idaho's most distinctive motor vehicle license plate funds improvements to trails, campsites, and other recreational facilities and services in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area (SNRA).

Sponsoring the special license plate to benefit the SNRA is one of many projects that the Sawtooth Society has undertaken -- all of which help us preserve, protect, and improve this spellbinding area.

The Sawtooth Society initiated and sponsored this distinctive license plate, which is available at all county assessor offices. 

The Society believes that the license plate represents a unique way for motor vehicle owners to voluntarily support the development, improvement, and maintenance of recreational facilities in the SNRA.

ADOPT-A-FENCE PROGRAM

The Sawtooth Society sponsors the Adopt-A-Fence project to reconstruct and rehabilitate the log worm fences that border public lands along Highways 21 and 75 in the SNRA.

The fences are a signature of the SNRA, and the Society believes it is important to preserve their historic, esthetic, and functional qualities so that people can enjoy them for future generations to come.

The Society recruits volunteers -- individuals, families, and organized groups -- to cut lodge pole pine trees for fence rails, butts and stays, and to rebuild fences. People interested in volunteering for the Adopt-A-Fence project between June and November should call (208) 387-0852 or e-mail us at sawtoothsociety@sawtoothsociety.org

ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY

The Society keeps two stretches through the SNRA free of litter.  One section is on Highway 75 near Beaver Creek. The other is on Highway 21 west of Stanley.  We provide volunteers with plastic bags from the Idaho Department of Transportation with which to collect bottles, cans, paper and other cast off materials.  Volunteers are needed!  Those interested should call (208) 387-0852 or e-mail us at sawtoothsociety@sawtoothsociety.org
